Chapter 887 The Last Daily Life 66
The remaining few people also began to discuss what kind of chocolate products they should make.
Taking into account what Claire said, that homogenized products would taste the same and lose the idea of tasting, they decided that everyone should make a different chocolate product.
However, there are so many of them that they need to be divided properly before doing so. Otherwise, if the chocolate products they make are the same, it will become a competition of taste, which will be very embarrassing.
At the very least, the difference in taste will make people involuntarily rank them, so at least we should avoid this from happening.
So I pondered for a while.
Finally, Lynn was the first to decide on the chocolate products she wanted to make. She said to everyone, "It's decided! I want to make chocolate cookies. How about it? Is it possible?"
Chocolate cookies are a moderate product. Although it is difficult to make them extremely delicious, it is also difficult to make them unpalatable. Lynn chose the relatively simple path. Considering that she is not a real pastry chef, chocolate cookies are undoubtedly the best solution.
In a way, it's a rather cunning choice.
"Then I'll make chocolate cake."
Wiz followed suit and decided on her own chocolate product. She smiled and said, "The soft chiffon cake is perfect for afternoon tea, and it won't make you bloated... Don't you think it's a good decision?"
Just like the character of the weak witch, she always thinks of others, and she is really unmatched in this regard. In addition, the soft flavor of chiffon cake can neutralize the sweetness and bitterness of other chocolate products, highlighting its own characteristics in disguise.
"Uh...then I..."
Alice was in a dilemma, not knowing which chocolate product to choose. Or rather, she wanted to try everything, looking a little greedy. Her guard, Claire, offered her suggestions.
"Your Highness Alice, you have just started learning how to cook. I suggest you don't make anything too difficult."
"But, I also want to make my brother happy..."
Alice wanted to make Xiaolin happy, or in other words, make the people who tasted her chocolate products happy, rather than the difficulty. And if it was too simple, it would seem that she was perfunctory.
At this time, Wiz thought of a good dessert and suggested, "Then, how about making chocolate truffles? Not only are they easy to make, but they also taste delicious. Most importantly, when Xiaolin was a guest in the store before, he praised the truffle balls. He should like them more."
"Chocolate truffles?... I see! Then I'll try making this!"
Alice clenched her fists.
In the eyes of others, she worked so hard not because the chocolate product was simple and delicious, but because Xiaolin liked to eat it. Claire covered her face with her hands, looking at the determined girl with a slightly intoxicated look.
Ah, I actually got to see Alice cooking so cutely. Just this once, I really want to thank Kobayashi...! However, when I thought about how Alice chose to make truffles just to please him, I got a little angry.
Claire's expression was extremely complicated, with mixed emotions of happiness and anger. However, the nympho expression she revealed did not seem to be concealed at all.
"Ms. Claire?" Lynn noticed something was wrong with Claire and subconsciously stepped aside. She asked with concern, "What's wrong? Your breathing is so rapid. Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, nothing! I'm fine!" Claire waved her hands quickly. At the same time, she said seriously and solemnly: "I'm looking forward to seeing your finished products. I hope you can make them smoothly!"
If I hadn't seen that expression just now, I would have thought it was an illusion. I have to say, although this guy looks no different from a nympho at ordinary times, he looks very serious at the critical moment, but it makes people feel that there is nothing new about him.
As they began to work, a pastry chef in the corner of the kitchen showed a sinister smile of success. Coupled with the black, steaming and strange-smelling sticky substance in the pot in front of her, she really looked like a witch.
“Hehehe…” Cecily couldn’t help laughing. She said with a little smugness, “It feels pretty good. Next, mix the chocolate into the forbidden thing, and add that and this to enhance the flavor…!”
She kept putting unknown ingredients into the pot, and along with an inexplicable smell, colorful lights flashed in the pot, reflecting Cecily's face, which was extremely scary.
Lynn noticed Cecily and came over. After finding the chaotic pot, she couldn't help but ask, "I say... Cecily, are you really making chocolate?"
People who didn’t know would think she was making some evil potion.
“Wow!” Cecily was startled. She turned her head sharply to look at the person who came. Then she relaxed and said in a complaining tone, “Ms. Lynn, please don’t talk to me all of a sudden. This is a critical moment!”
“Ah, sorry, sorry.” Lynn quickly put her hands together and apologized. She said embarrassedly, “I didn’t expect you to be so focused…”
Well, there are things in the world that look bad but taste good, and Cecily hasn't brought out the finished product yet, so it's obviously too much to just guess, and it's not really bad. The taste... is a little special.
Cecily patted her chest and said, "What I'm doing now requires an extremely meticulous and high-level work process, so please don't disturb me unless it's necessary, okay?"
"Sorry, I didn't expect... Wait, meticulous and high-quality?" Lynn looked at the chaotic pot, then looked at Cecily with a suspicious look and asked, "You are making chocolate, right?"
Despite asking this question, his suspicion was genuine.
Cecily had already guessed that Lynn would ask this question, so she answered decisively, "Yes, of course it's chocolate! Please look forward to my finished product!"
Without any hesitation, it seemed to be true.
As if she wanted to get Lynn out of the way, Cecily looked at the empty kitchen and asked kindly, "By the way, Miss Lynn, how is the situation over there?"
"...I decided to make chocolate chip cookies." Lynn was unmoved and even pointed to the oven behind her and said, "I put them in just now."
I have to say, she was very fast. But considering that the steps required to make chocolate cookies were not that complicated, it was understandable that she was the fastest among all.
“Chocolate cookies?” Cecily drooled slightly and said happily, “When you’re done, please give me a bite.”
"no problem!"
Lynn agreed readily.
At this moment, a girl's scream suddenly came from behind.
“…Ah!?” Princess Alice looked at the twisted chocolate product in front of her and said weakly, “The shape is out of shape again. Cooking is really a difficult task…”
"Are you, are you okay, Princess Alice?" Claire, who was acting as a guard, was extremely nervous. She quickly ran over and grabbed Princess Alice's hand, and asked excitedly, "Are you injured anywhere...!"
Then, he played with Princess Alice's hand breathlessly, and I don't know if he was taking the opportunity to take advantage of her.
"You're exaggerating, Claire." Princess Alice shook her head slightly and said, "I was just making the chocolate into balls. I didn't do anything dangerous... Claire?"
She found that she couldn't pull her hand out of the other person's hand, and looked at Claire with confusion.
Claire said loudly: "But, as soon as I think that there is something here that may hurt Her Highness Alice's body, I can't help it...!"
"Claire, please believe me." Princess Alice wrapped Claire's hands with her own and said with a gentle smile, "I want to make this chocolate myself!"
"Your Highness Alice..."
Claire stared at the girl in a daze. She never expected that she would go to such an extent.
"It's okay. Please don't worry, Miss Claire." Wiz also came over. She comforted the emotional Claire and said, "We will also take good care of Her Highness Alice and will not let her get hurt."
Moreover, even if I get hurt, Aqua is here, so it doesn’t matter even if I die accidentally... Of course, I can’t say this to Claire, otherwise she will definitely stop this activity loudly.
"...Okay, I understand. I won't say anything more." Claire finally gave in under the strong gaze of Her Highness Alice. She made a second choice and expressed her loyalty: "I will quietly protect Her Highness Alice and watch you finish the chocolate. So, please... be careful."
"Okay, please look forward to the chocolates I make!"
Alice said this with a smile on her face.
At this time, Wiz seemed to have finished making her chocolate products, and took the initiative to come over to help Her Highness Alice and guide her as a teacher.
"Then, Your Highness Alice, let's start again from rolling the chocolate into balls. I'll do it with you this time."
"sorry to bother you!"
So, the two of them concentrated on making chocolate products, and Claire just watched the whole process as she said, and did not intervene.
A few hours later——
Everyone brought up the various chocolate products they had made.
Lynn said, "Then Miss Claire, please try it."
"Please feel free to express your opinions. Don't be shy." Princess Alice was afraid that Claire would hide her true opinion due to the difference in their status, so she asked her to do so from the beginning.
"I understand." Claire understood that Princess Alice did not want to serve defective products to others, so she said that she would make comments in an extremely objective and fair manner.
"Then I'll get started."
Claire tasted all the chocolate products in front of her. She did not make any comments but tasted them silently until she had tried them all. After that, Wiz seemed to be unable to bear the doubts in her heart anymore and asked actively.
"Excuse me, how does it taste?"
"...Well, everything is delicious, comparable to the shops that serve the royal family." Claire was very satisfied with the chocolate products. She praised all of them with high praise. "Mr. Kobayashi will definitely be very happy with this."
"We succeeded! Miss Lynn! Princess Alice!"
Wiz was very happy, but she ignored what Claire said right after that: "The best ones are the truffle chocolates made by Her Highness Alice." She clearly said that she would treat them fairly, but in the end she still said that... No, maybe the chocolate products made by Her Highness Alice were the most delicious among all of them.
Hearing such high praise, Lynn seemed to be able to finally breathe a sigh of relief. She took a breath and said, "That's great... Anyway, this matter has come to an end now."
“I was able to complete the truffles because of your help! Thank you so much!”
Alice bowed slightly to everyone.
She enjoyed treating the newbies in the kitchen well.
On the other side, Claire continued to boast: "The most delicious one is, of course, Her Highness Alice's chocolate! Even if one costs one million eris, I still think it's cheap—"
"Let's quickly give the chocolate to my brother!"
"Ah, I haven't finished expressing my feelings yet..."
Unfortunately, Alice was so focused on Kobayashi that she completely ignored Claire's flattery and fawning, which dealt a heavy blow to the guard officer.
Lynn also agreed with this decision. She said, "Let's ask Aqua and the others to come together and give the chocolates to Xiaolin. He will definitely be very happy, right?"
“That’s right, everyone… Hey, that’s strange.” Wiz was about to say this, but when she looked around, she found that there was one person missing in the kitchen. She asked with a confused look on her face, “By the way, where did Miss Cecily go? I haven’t seen her since a while ago…?”
While Wiz and the others were rejoicing over the completion of the chocolate, Cecily was alone in the backyard of the mansion. She squatted in the corner of the lawn with a slightly perverted smile on her face.
“…Almost…Almost…The brand new agar slime will be completed…! Hehehe…hehehehe…hehehehe————”
She let out a sinister laugh that was no different from that of a sinister witch.
No, considering that priests are indeed similar to witches in some ways, the similarities between the two are the same.
at the same time.
While Wiz and the others were making chocolates, Kobayashi, who was bored, was drinking delicious black tea in the cafe. Suddenly, his body shook uncontrollably and an ominous premonition arose in his heart, as if something bad was going to happen next, which made Kobayashi feel a little uneasy.
